The story revolves around the conversion to Christianity of the native population in Mexico. The conquerors, the Spaniards leave no stone unturned in their efforts to make Mexico the new Spain.
My favourite dialogue from the film:
Why have you come to take away what is ours?
My impressions:
The clash of civilisation
Centuries ago
The conquerors
The conquered
Between them
Blood flows easily
In one, the blood of sacrifice
In the other, the blood of salvation
One has noble aims
Supposedly
Besides the riches and glory
One is determined
To stay true
To oneself
The set of beliefs
Since ancient times
Who will triumph
Are there any winners?
